Loxahatchee Groves Council Approves New Equestrian Trail Maintenance Contract

Loxahatchee Groves Town Council voted unanimously last night, April 14, 2026, to approve a new contract for the maintenance of the town's extensive equestrian trail system. The decision, made during their regular council meeting at Town Hall on Okeechobee Boulevard, nestled in western Palm Beach County's horse country, ensures the continued upkeep of the popular trails that are central to the community's rural character.

The new contract, awarded to Local Trails LLC, a Loxahatchee-based company, will cover routine grading, debris removal, and surface improvements for all designated equestrian paths within the town limits. Council members emphasized the importance of well-maintained trails for both resident safety and the preservation of Loxahatchee Groves' unique lifestyle, rooted in its equestrian heritage. The agreement is set to commence on May 1, 2026, with an initial term of one year, including options for renewal.
